Chapter 122 Stone Breaks the Sky 2
The arrival of Muto Nobuyoshi made the Chinese garrison in Chengde City and the Japanese army outside the city breathed a sigh of relief. After several days of bloody fighting, even the Banbenzheng Right Guard Gate of the Kumamoto Division, which claimed that he had been beaten by steel and cast iron, lost its voice, and his voice was so hoarse that he could hardly speechless.
The Sixth Division of the Old Street Attack and Defense Warfare was filled with a fully packed wing. The shells of the heavy artillery regiment were fired, and all the houses on both sides of the old street were blown up into broken walls, but among the broken walls, the surviving [***] people continued to defend, for the two assault companies and the subsequent reinforcements. In other words, they were ordered to have a room to guard a room and a street to guard a street. They must not take a step back until they die in battle.
The officers and soldiers of the new first division are very clear that 200 meters behind them are the division headquarters and the field hospital. They are already unable to retreat. The martyrs who died in the war have a high pension. After retreating, they were killed by the military police company of the division's legal department to cancel the pension. The reward for the previous killing of the Japanese army was invalidated at the same time, and one died horizontally. The Chinese soldiers all held my strength to fight with you, and this time I really hit the wall.
Compared with the Banben Zhengyouweimen of the Sixth Division, Xi Yiyi of the Eighth Division is more suitable for begging along the street at this moment. It is a pity to describe this brother with a clichés in later movies, that is, it is a pity that this dress is not to beg for food!
With the strategic tiger ditch of the 14th Division, the pressure of the 8th Division has increased sharply, because Songmu Zhiliang almost every day to report that the 8th Division's attack on Monk Guanfeng is unfavorable, because the Chinese defenders, who still occupy the main peak of Monk Guanfeng, continue to bombard the tiger with five 75 mm wild cannons on the mountainside. The direction of the ditch is called the military force, and the military artillery is limited to the field artillery shooting high and low shooting boundary and cannot fight back.
Nobuyoshi Muto, the commander of the Kwantung Army with a stereotyped face like a K expression above a poker card, plus the expressionless Chief of Staff Kuniaki Koiso, Deputy Chief of Staff Ningji Okamura, and the commander of the Sixth Division, the commander of the Sixth Division, the commander of the Sixth Division, the division commander of the division, the division commander of the Eighth Division, the commander of the Eighth Division, Hirose Shousuke Hirose, and the 14th Division. The commander of the division, Matsuki Zhiliang, the commander of the 16th division, Pu Mu, and the brigade commanders with a more bitter expression below, were like a group of abandoned women, sitting in a chair sadly, waiting for Muto Nobuyoshi to uphold justice for them.
Looking at these divisions and brigade commanders under his command, Muto Xinyi's heart also thumped, especially the head of the Xiyi First Division, whose head was wrapped like India's gauze was still bleeding out. What kind of battle was the battle of Chengde? How could it make the previous high-spirited generals so decadent? There is a sluggish atmosphere of defeat in the conference room. Their generals have lost the will to win the battle. Will the situation of the troops below be better?
Nobuyoshi Muto closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath and said, "Guys! Our army has swept hundreds of thousands of [***] teams in the Rehe River, and has made immortal contributions to the empire. Although we have encountered a small setback in front of us, there is no doubt that our heroic and fearless imperial army will sweep all the enemies to win!"
Nobuyoshi Muto's words made the division commanders here secretly relieved. His Excellency the commander did not come to ask for his sins! Several division commanders smiled awkwardly at each other, and Xi Yiyi also touched the wound and took a few breaths of cold air.
Muto Nobuyoshi originally wanted to visit the periphery of Chengde to see the actual situation of the battlefield, but from Ningji Okamura to the brigade commanders below shook their heads like rattles and resolutely opposed it. Major General Shinichi Nakamura, the brigade commander of the 33rd Brigade, almost hugged Nobuyoshi Muto's thigh and begged him not to go, and told him Nobuyoshi Muto, now officers above the wing have long changed their soldiers' military uniforms and fur shoes, and even Chief Cao dares not hang command knives and southern pistols!
In surprise, Nobuyoshi Muto suddenly found that the bright brigade commanders present were wearing thick tweed military uniforms of generals, and their lower bodies were all twill thick cloth trousers of soldiers, and they were wearing flip-over shoes with leggings?
Ningji Okamura had no choice but to stand up and said with a slightly sweat: "Commander, the spirit of [***] people who would rather die than give in is comparable to my imperial army. Even if they still have a breath, there is still a bullet left, and they will lurk in the rubble. Colonel Miyamoto Fushimi and Colonel Nishiki Naomura are all hit. The national wounded soldiers shot, and there was a group of soldiers with particularly good shooting. Like our special shooters, they specially shot each other officers, machine gunners and other important targets. However, in contrast, the sharpshooters who are familiar with the terrain are more efficient. Now some of the three infantry regiments in Chengde City are attacked. The captains are all held by Chief Cao, which shows that the officers have suffered great losses!"
"Bastard!" As soon as Muto Xinyi heard that Cao Chang had been temporarily promoted to command a squadron, he immediately said an angryly, "Then why don't you temporarily stop the attack?" The victory of this stupid attack is also bitter!"
Everyone present stared at me for a long time, but no one dared to tell Muto Nobuyoshi that it was you, a fool, who ordered a fierce attack!
Although Muto Nobuyoshi is old, it doesn't mean that he is a fool. He smelled something from the flashing words of his subordinates, so he hurriedly laughed and said, "Thank you for your understanding. Since we don't go to the forefront, let's take a look at the sand table here!"
When it came to the sand table, Ningji Okamura's face changed. He took a deep breath and said, "The sand table was overturned a few days ago, and I didn't have time to make a new one!" Let's look at the map!"
The division commanders present all knew that Ningji Okamura was talking nonsense, and the sand table was overturned by him two days ago. Because the sixth division failed to attack the old street and let the defense forces from the middle [***] withdraw safely. Okamura Ningci quarreled with Banbenzheng Youweimen, and finally overturned the sand table in anger!
Muto Nobuyoshi said helplessly, "Look at the map, it's the same to look at the map!"
Hearing the map, Banben Zhengyouweimen, the commander of the Sixth Division, also looked pale and hurriedly said, "The new map has been sent to pick it up. Commander, please wait a moment!"
On that day of the relationship, it was the map of Ningji Okamura, the goalkeeper of Banmoto Zhengyouwei. You know, the military map and weapons and equipment of the Japanese army are average. They are all numbered and missing a copy. How to damage it? Lost location? After? The certifier? The process of filing and other processes and their troubles, especially the more strict custody system of the 200,000-to-one strategic map, which is naturally known by Nobuyoshi Muto.
So a large number of people endured the surname and other maps. Koiso Kunizhao took the time to pull Okamura Ningji aside and said very harshly, "Mr. Okamura! What are you doing? There is no sand table and map in the enemy headquarters of the imperial Kwantung Army? Are you testing the limit of your commander's tolerance?
Ningji Okamura is worth standing upright, bending down and bowing and saying, "Mr. Chief of Staff, please forgive me and understand!"
Soon, after the map was sent, Muto Nobuyoshi's face looked a little better, but there was a thick list of losses and casualty statistics sent together. Looking at the thick file, Muto Nobuyoshi found that he seemed to be jumping fast.
As the deputy chief of staff and former enemy commander of the Kwantung Army who arrived at the front, Ningji Okamura picked up the baton point helplessly and said on the map: "After twelve hard battles, our army broke through two of the triangular defense points of the new first division of the Chinese garrison from the north and southeast, and now there is only an altitude of 179. The main peak of the six-meter monk Guanfeng is still in the hands of the middle [***]. After breaking through the city wall, our army was constantly blocked by the preset fire positions of the Chinese defenders, and the middle [***] repeatedly used chariots to counterattack our army and launch night attacks to restore the lost positions during the day. Although our army broke through the city wall, although it was compressed. The enemy's position is undoubtedly equivalent to the firepower of the enemy in disguise.
Nobuyoshi Muto looked at the two red arrows on the map and pondered for a moment. He said firmly in a deep voice, "Attack with meatballs!"
